Pinckney Community High School is a great school. Superintendent Rick Todd is top-notch as are the school's Co-Principals, Advising, and Counseling Staff. Our daughter has thrived there by finding her own path. She has done online school via Michigan Virtual (in partnership with the high school) which has allowed her to still be part of the community and to play multiple sports and travel the globe to learn about other cultures. She has also taken some virtual classes taught by the high school and some dual enrollment classes through Washtenaw Community College to earn both high school and college credit. The school has been phenomenal in providing this flexibility and our daughter has really found her way in the world and loves the Pinckney community.
